Improve the standby time of op2 , for rooted phones.



after waiting impatiently for the arrival of your op2 , many are disappointed with the low battery standby....specially if you are using LTE.
issues :

1) even having such a large battery, getting poor battery life. :confused:
2) even if the phone is idle, battery drains :crying:

so after having it for almost 2 weeks, i have learned most of the cpu tuner and battery saving apps wont work with op2, its not because of software, basically snapdragon 810's big little architecture is new and apps in the market are not compatible with this octacore new chipset.

and because of very less manufacturers are using this SOC as we now know why... and they were right... it heats up a lot!!! so app developers have not concentrated an specific app for this SOC.

so after lots of mix and matches, finally have come up with a stable solution as follows :

a) your phone should be rooted.

b) install 3c cpu manager from playstore.

c) open minimum 6 apps in background maximum the better.
( remember if no apps are running in background then cpu manager will show only maximum 1.555 ghz. max frequency and 384 mhz low frequency single setup only and big little architecture dual setup wont be shown ie: 810 has 4 cores running @ 1.555 ghz max and other 4 cores @ 1.76 ghz max. and both setups at 384 mhz minimum. )

d) open cpu manager, there should be 2 different setups, if not then open more apps in background, simply change the governor to ON-DEMAND, from interactive and set it on and reboot, as i have noticed with interactive governor even during standby, processor does not stays idle at lower frequencies.

after changing the governor, i have noticed that during standby cpu frequencies are in idle or at the lowest. which highly improvises the battery standby life and haven't noticed any performance degradation.

you can even limit the higher cores frequencies from 1.76 ghz to 1.55 ghz... improving up-to some limit of over heating issues and better standby time.

these are just the findings i discovered with my phone, so don't blame me if anything goes wrong, do it at your own risk.
